Architecture in Auroville

Experimentation in building done in Auroville covers various aspects of architecture, and includes building materials, building technology, eco-friendly architecture, climate responsive designs, integration with natural surroundings, cost-effective buildings, geomancy and geometry, as well as the design of spaces themselves, including experimenting with the lifestyle of the user. There has also been spillover into the design and management of building infrastructure, the building of integrated rainwater harvesting systems, domestic waste water treatment plants and the integration of renewable energy systems for energy demands.

 Every year dozens of Architect students apply for an Internship in the Auroville Architectural Studios to learn from the alternative practices found here.

Most of the Architectural Studios accept few interns per semestar. For more information you would have to contact the Studios directly.
